had it on my samsung and loved it,worked great. Then all of a sudden it stopped working and i couldnt redownload it. The folks at trimble say its a bug at at&t and they havent worked it out yet. If you have something other than at&t i would recomend it.

So have you tried trimble outdoors it is also on my phone. I do have at&t until my contract is out in sept then im thinking it is time to change. I want to geocache so badly.

GN is a great tool, works verywell with a wonderful 'find geocaches near me' feature which will get local caches no matter where you are.

At $6 a month though, its possibly a tad expensive, as over 12 months or so you could have a permanent, albeit second hand, dedicated GPSr

As your contract is over soon, have you thought about Nokia? using the Free Ovi maps you can send a Pocket Query, to your phone, and that will put all the caches as Points of Interest on the maps! using the Ovimaps 'offline' wont incur data charges.

 

Geocache Navigator is a one off payment for Nokia users too!

That is true but the dedicated GPS can't locate caches closest to present location w/o using PQ's.

 

The App World for Blackberry has GeoNavigator for $20 with no monthly fee. It is only good for the current device so when you get a new phone you have to pay the $20 again but a bunch cheaper than $6 a month.
